    Hi everyone

    I want to change my brakes today, and I am wondering how hard is it to
    do so. If you know any step-by-step guides please let me know. I can do
    just about anything, but I want to make sure I don't forget to do
    something that is important, that someone may not know.

    Thank you

    "BRAKE" huh? I assume you mean it's as easy as saying the word brake.

    I did it myself, and it wasn't hard at all. It didn't take long, and
    while I did that I figured I should change my oil, since I already had
    jacked up my civic.

    Thanks anyways!

  6. Especially note the part about lubrication of the slide pins. If you didn't
    clean and lube those you will be changing pads again soon.
